Woodlands Primary Academy

We opened as a community primary school in September 2008, catering for children between the ages of 3 and 11 years. There are two classes in each year from Reception to Year 6 and a Nursery class.

Since April 2015 we have been part of the Creative Education Trust. This has enabled the school to rigorously  pursue rapid improvement for the children we teach. In July 2017 we were graded as 'Good' by Ofsted.

We work closely with other local schools, both secondary and primary, as part of the Lynn Grove cluster. This ensures that there is consistency between the schools in areas such as SEND provision. More information about our cluster can be found here.

The school is well resourced and we strive to provide an inclusive and expansive education for all of the children in our care. Our facilities include:

• ​​​A purpose-built extension for Reception and Year 1 children;
• Two networked ICT suites and portable banks of laptops and ipads;
• Interactive whiteboards in every classroom;
• A purpose-built, fully computerised central library;
• Specialist facilities for music, art, science, design and technology
   (including food technology) and special educational needs
• We have a large environmental area on the school site with over a mile of nature trails which we frequently use as a teaching resource. We also have an amphitheatre that is used as an outside classroom, covered seating areas, a trim trail and a play activity area.
